^ Exactly. When you learn how to use the callie, not just to kill stuff like the bigger artillerys, but to soften up for an assault or to hold back an assault, then you'll see how useful it is. One way i've always liked to use callies is to soften up a defensive line so my teammates can assault, or if a huge assault of something is coming, stop them in their tracks. You can also use it against heavies cuz of the wider body, it'll take more hits than stugs or p4's, also works really well vs PE light vehicles, just a few hits will get to half health or 1/3 health and then an at gun, rr or zook can finish it off. They're great against paks, great anti mortar, although unless it's seriously bugging you, it's a waste of a barrage. With its main gun back, it can defend against the random upgun puma that gets buy, or a single schreck guy, i've even held off a hetzer with its main gun until help arrived (he didn't dare get too close) I even baited a guy to chase his panther after my callie by killing a weakened one knowing he'd chase and then killing that one, bam, 2 panthers gone just by using my callie as bait (lost it but meh) it was a huge turning point and then our armor ran free.
